Subject: RE: Another destructive virus
FYI......please read this! Betty R.
To: Subject: FW: Virus Warning
PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST!!
A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft
http://www.microsoft.com/ ) and by McAfee (
http://www.mcafee.com/ )
as the most destructive ever! This virus was discovered yesterday afternoon
by McAfee and no vaccine has yet been developed. This virus simply destroys
Sector Zero from the hard disk, where vital information for its functioning
are stored. This virus acts in the following manner: It sends itself
automatically to all contacts on your list with the title "A Virtual Card
for
You". As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened, the computer freezes
so
that the user has to reboot. When the ctrl+alt+del keys or the reset button
are pressed, the virus destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently destroying the
hard disk. Yesterday in just a few hours this virus caused panic in New
York,
according to news broadcast by CNN
http://www.cnn.com/ /
http://www.cnn.com/). This alert was received by an
employee of Microsoft itself. So don't open any mails with subject "A
Virtual Card for You".
As soon as you get the mail, delete it. Please pass on this mail to all your
friends and co-workers. Forward this to everyone in your address book. I
would rather receive this 25 times than not at all.
Also: Intel announced that a new and very destructive virus was discovered
recently. If you receive an email called "An Internet Flower For You" do not
open it. Delete it right away! This virus removes all dynamic link
libraries(.dll files) from your computer. Your computer will not be able to
boot up.! !
